Develop a critical understanding of Reasonable Doubt, using true cases from within the Canadian criminal justice system.
The purpose of this course is to develop a critical understanding of Reasonable Doubt, using true cases from within the Canadian criminal justice system. Reasonable Doubt is a standard of proof used in criminal trials. When a criminal defendant is prosecuted, the prosecutor must prove the defendant's guilt "Beyond a Reasonable Doubt." Based on chapters from Tough Crimes in the Durvile True Cases books, this course contains stories by Richard Peck QC, Noel O'Brien QC, Joel Pink QC, Patrick Fagan QC, and Brian Beresh QC. This Reasonable Doubt course is part of a learning series that explores the precepts of criminal justice: the presumption of innocence, the right to a defence, reasonable doubt, and the importance of juries.
